Representative of Kwara Central in the Nigerian Youth Parliament, Hon. Ibraheem Abdullateef has called on the leadership of the major political parties in Nigeria to slash the fees for their nomination forms ahead of the 2023 elections, to strengthen democracy and foster inclusion.

different political parties, among other fees, will serve as a “stumbling block” to a rounded political inclusion. Ibraheem charged young Nigerians to take up the cause with vigour as they did with the Age Reduction Bill known as #NotTooYoungToRun, towards the 2019 elections.

High fees on the nomination form is a strategy to eliminate certain strata of the society from participating in the party's selection of candidates/flag-bearers.

Abi! It matters to attract more loyal youths and less privileged in politics... Doing this is one of the primary steps to the change in our crave. And they shouldn't forget to push advocacy for the implementation of independence candidacy alongside this. God bless Nigeria!
